Abstract

The set of pairs of transformations on the interval [0, 1] can be equipped with a standard Borel structure. We prove that the relation of conjugacy is not a Borel subset of this space, in fact it is complete analytic. Moreover, our construction proves that the two sets, {T : T is conjugate of T-1}, and {T : the centralizer of T is non-trivial} are complete analytic sets.
